| Choosing a private vehicle | A separate private-cab search option lets you look for a whole vehicle as well as shared seats. | The carpool service offers seats on driver-published journeys. Optional Zen requests offer door-to-door travel where available; check the terms of the specific offer. Source |
| Fare comparison | Review the published fare and whether it covers a seat or the whole vehicle before confirming. | Drivers specify the seat price. BlaBlaCar says prices vary by route, departure and demand. Source |

Drivers complete OTP verification and upload licence and vehicle details. | BlaBlaCar describes reviews, profiles and ID checks. Review the information shown on each listing. Source |
| Booking and cancellation details | Ride Assurance can search for a replacement or support a driver handover. You approve the proposed driver, vehicle, departure and new fare; a replacement is subject to availability. | Check the India Help Centre and your booking for the current cancellation and refund rules.

Which is better for your trip?
Choose by the ride you can actually book
HeyGo may be a better fit if you want to compare a shared seat with a private cab and review a replacement proposal if plans change. Another platform may have a more suitable departure, meeting point or price on your date.
We have not run a matched fare, availability or safety study. There is no evidence here that either service is always cheaper, safer or more reliable.
Compare the same journey
- Use the same departure date, time window and number of passengers.
- Account for travel to the meeting point and from the drop-off.
- Compare a seat with a seat, or a whole vehicle with a whole vehicle.
- Check the final total, applicable fees, baggage terms and cancellation conditions.
- Confirm the driver and departure before making time-sensitive plans.

FAQ
HeyGo vs BlaBlaCar: your questions
Is HeyGo better than BlaBlaCar?
HeyGo may suit you if you want regional route guides, shared-seat and private-cab search options, and a replacement proposal you approve through Ride Assurance. The best choice depends on actual rides, meeting points, timing and total fare. We have not established that HeyGo is always cheaper, safer or more available.
Does Ride Assurance guarantee a replacement at the same price?
No. A replacement depends on a suitable driver and seat being available. You see the proposed driver, vehicle, departure time and exact new fare before approving. That fare may be higher, lower or the same.
